Today was another pretty normal day. Nothing exciting ever really happens unless I get to see Allie. Without her my days would always be this bland. Anyway after work I ended up going to the mall and getting a haircut. I also picked up some dinner while I was there. On the way back home I stopped at walmart to pick up some needed items for the fridge. Once I got back home I pretty much just worked on a project for someone all night. I ended up being able to talk to a friend of mine in Brazil though. He ended up getting online at about 11:45 and I've been talking to ever since. Its been almost a year since we talked last. I finally had to tell him I needed to get to sleep. It got really late. It was nice being able to talk to him though. Anyway, Bye for now!

Today was a pretty typical day at work. I did end up having a service call at someones house though and on the way there I was able to stop in and say hi to allie. The rest of the time at work after that was kind of slow. Once I left work I ended up going to meet with my pastor at the church. We had a really good conversation tonight about some things and I was glad for the time we spent together. Around 8:50 or so I ended up leaving the chruch and heading over to the airport to hang out with Allie as she worked the evening shift today. It was pretty slow over there tonight so she was glad I could come keep her company. I had fun hanging out. She closed up around 10:00 and then headed home. I just came back home as well and read for most of the evening. But now I'm going to head to bed. Night!

Today was a long day. I was at work all day, then had a service call at 4pm today and I ended up being there until 8:30 this evening. All went smoothly for the most part, it was just time consuming. I hope all will be well once they get to the office tomorrow. Allie also came back today so that was good. I'm glad she is back. Night!

Today was a good day at church. We had a guest speaker but he did a really good job. He was someone that plans to go and plant a church up in massachutets. He seems like a great guy. The rest of the day I ended up haning out over at the donnebergs. We had chinese delivery for lunch and Chuck and I did a lot of playing ont he computers today. Later on in the evening we just watched movies the rest of the night. It was pretty fun. Allie is still down in TX though so it was sad not having her around. She gets back tomorrow though, I'm excited about that. Anyway.. Gotta go to sleep now. Night!

Today was a pretty busy day. Started out at 7:00 this morning with my dentist appointment. The appointment went pretty well actually. Ended up not being too bad. All he had to do was redrill and refill from a filling that fell out. The office there is pretty cool. He has little glasses and headphones he puts on the patients before he starts work and there are little tv screens in the glasses. So you can watch tv while he works on you. That was kinda cool.

After he finished up I stopped in at work to gather some stuff up for a service call that I had to do at 9:30 this morning. On the way to the call I stopped in at the Airport to see what Allie was up to. She was in her little golf cart doing something on the other side of the field. But I waited for a few minutes and she was back in time to say hi. That was good to see her.

My service call today was at the movie theater. I had to go through and clean all of thier projectors and computer equipment. It was a pretty interesting thing to do. I was able to see how it all works up there. The rolls of movie film on some were up to about 3 feet in diamater. The spindles themselvs were about 5 feet in diamater, so I wonder if some movies really get that long. Anyway, the whole process ended up going pretty smoothly. It was a pretty cool experience to be able to do that.

I then headed back to work for the rest of the day once I finished up at the theater. My head has been aching a little from the dentist this morning but I hope a good nights sleep will fix it. I ended up taking a three hour nap after I got home from work today though and that helped a little bit. Anyway.. I'm going to try to head to bed again now. I hope I am able to sleep after that nap. Night!

Today I was tired through the day a lot. I managed to make it through work today though. After work I ended up going over to the Donnebergs house to help Jo with a computer issue she was having. I really hope I got it working for awhile. Its kinda sad though because she'll probably need to get a new drive to permantly fix it. But For now, I think its a sufficent patch. While I was there I ended up having dinner with the family and I hung out till about 10:00 or so. After leaving there though I came back home and worked on a few things around here and on my computer. I am going to head to bed now though. It got late on me again. Night!

Just got back from promise keepers today. It was a great trip to just hang out with a bunch of guys. I ended up rooming with Dennis and that was a fun thing. We ended up staying up till around 2am just talking about stuff. The conference was extremelly cool and I enjoyed that as well, but I think the best part was just being with a group of guys. It was good stuff. I would talk about it more, but it got late and I should head to bed. Before I go though I also wanted to mention that I ended up going mini golfing with Allie and Bekah and Angela (two girls from Allie's dorm) tonight. That was pretty fun. We laughed a lot! Anyway. Thats all for tonight. Night.

PS. HAPPY FATHERS DAY DAD!!!!!!!!! Love you!

Today at work I tried to research a computer/server issue that will come up for a project we have next week. I found a partway solution but its not the best in the world. We are going to keep working on that for the next week or so. But that kept me busy most of the day today. After work I took Allie out to dinner at Olive Garden. It was really good and we both ended up having stuff left over for lunch tomorrow. After eating we went to a nice park and sat on a bench and talked about a bunch of stuff. It was nice to finally dissuss some stuff. After leaving the park we went to get some coffee and then I dropped her off at home. I then had to return home all by myself... But I had some thigns to do anyway tonight. Then I talked to my parents for a little while on the phone. Anyway today was a pretty good day. I had a lot of fun hanging with Allie. Tomorrow I will be going to Promise Keepers in NC so I may not make a post tomorrow. We'll see what happens. Anyway. Night!

Today was an alright day for the most part. One thing that kind of stinks though is the fact that one of my teeth cracked up and came apart today. I was just chewing some gum and then relize I'm crunching some stuff. Turns out I had a bunch of small chuncks of my tooth in my mouth. It was pretty bad. It doesn't hurt now or anything, but I really should get it looked at I know. So I have an appt for next thursday now. This evening I went to pickup allie from her house and we went to church together tonight. Then after church we just hung out for a little while until she had to go to bed. After she went to bed I stayed for a little while longer and ended up talking to her poppa for awhile. It was pretty cool. I really should head on to bed now though. Night!

Today was a pretty hectic day. I ended up dropping my car off this morning at the mechanic shop before work so I had to have Jason come pick me up from there and bring me to work. I had a lot of things on the list to do for my car today. I needed new tires, and realigned front axle, needed the back door fixed and my oil changed, and also had some more issues with the radiator. While that was all getting looked at turns out there was a service call that I was able to do today. I didn't have a car to go do it in though so Andy had to take me and drop me off there while he went out to do bank deposit and stuff. I then had to have one of the guys pick me up afterwards as well. I ended up calling to see how my van was doing at the time also and turns out they were still working on it so I wasn't able to go get it on the way back to the shop. It ended up getting done around 4:30 this evening. The bill came to just over $400 worth of stuff. It was kind of sad because I'm still trying to get all kinds of stuff paid off but not having much luck with all this other stuff now. I still need to have brakes done and a raidiator replaced within the next few months as well. After getting back home this evening though I checked my mail and found a letter from my grandma in there. Turns out that she sent me a late graduation present just in time to help with my car expenses. It was perfect timing and God is good in how he provides. Thanks Grandma!!

After getting home I ended up having dinner with my neighbor tonight. He was out cooking on his BBQ so I ended up getting some chicken and cooking it out there with him. We ended up eating together and had some pretty decent conversation. I was able to witness to him some more and just talk about life and how God works in it. It was really cool. Then the rest of the evening I just sat and read some books and did some responding to e-mails and such. Turned out to be a really good day. God is Good!

Today things started to pick up at work. Both of the other guys decided they could go on a service call today since we've been so slow. So that left me in the shop by myself for a lot of the day. Well turns out that today happend to be the day when we get busy again. It got pretty crazy at a few points. Things just happend to calm down again once Jason got back from his service call. I hate it when that happends. Anyway.... after work I went over to a couple's house from church for dinner tonight. I ended up being there until around 10:30 tonight. It was pretty good conversation just talking to them about all kinds of stuff. Turns out I had gone on a missions trip to brazil with thier grandson last year. So we talked about him some and his future plans as a missionary/church planter. That lead to conversation about my and my mission plans. It was all pretty cool.

After leaving thier house I stopped by the D-bergs so I could get some packages that were dropped off there for me today. I ended up getting one from my parents and also my laptop I got off of ebay came in today too. My Dad sent me soom tools and screws and such and I really liked a bit set that he sent me. My mom also threw in some kitchen stuff along with it as well. Its always nice getting packages. Thanks guys, love you! Tonight I swapped parts from my broken laptop with the laptop I got off of ebay to make it so it had everythign working. Then I had to play with it some of course. I ended up staying up longer then I wanted to though, so naughty me... Anyway I really should get to bed now. Night!

I didn't forget to blog last night, my website was just down so I couldn't. But I'll write a quick one before I head to work since it is back up and running. Yesterday church went pretty well. My neighbor ended up having to work so he couldn't make it. The afternoon was just kind of relaxing. I went over the Donnebergs for lunch and I helped a little bit with the painting project they are doing in the kitchen. I didn't help all that much though, Allie and I spent most of the day playing scrabble. It was fun for awhile, but then I started to get board with it after awhile and I ended up trying to do pilates with her, we aren't going to talk about that though =o). Anyway later in the evening I ended up going to the last leadership class series at church and it was pretty good. Once it was over I went back home and met up with my friend Jonathan. He has been out of town for quite awhile and now that he is back I decided we should try to hang out for a bit. We ended up talking for about 2 1/2 hours at my place. It ws cool. Anyway that pretty much covers it. I'm going to head off to work now... Bye.

OH! By the way, today is Allie's first day at her new job. I hope she will like it!

Today was a good day. Allie and her friend bekah came by my work this morning and said Hi. We were still fairly slow today though so Andy and I tried to clean up the shop some. Andy actually threw stuff away, that made cleaning up a little better. After work I ended up going by the church and talking to my pastor for about three hours since it didn't work out on thursday. It ended up being a pretty good conversation. After leaving the church I went over to see Allie. We went to see a movie tonight called "Take the Lead" and I thought it was a good movie. Then afterwards we went out for dinner at Sheetz. So we had a date at a gas station. It was pretty fun. I'm not sure what we inhaled somewhere tonight though, but we were pretty crazy. It was a lot of fun though. After leaving Allie for the night to go back home, I ended up finding that Allie had come to my apartment while I was at work today and created a sticky note fest all over the place. She wrote all kinds of notes on stickys and placed them all over the house. It was really fun to gather all of them up. She is great! I love that woman! So anyway... I'm going to head to bed now. Night!

Last night I went to bed without blogging again. It keeps slipping my mind. I had a fun thing to mention about yesterday too. In the morning as I was eating breakfast before work, and Allie and Jo surprised me and popped in at my apartment. They hung out here for about 45 minutes. I hadn't seen Allie since tuesday and It was nice to have her stop in again. It was one of those things that get you through the day. The rest of the day at work was still kinda slow but things are starting to build up again I think. Then last night after work I went over to Scott and Abby's house to just hang out. It had been awhile since I've spent any time with them it turned out to be a nice evening. Then I just came home and read some mail and worked on a few things then headed to bed. That was it.

I missed doing a blog last night. Sorry about that. Didn't really miss much of a day though. Work was normal and kinda of slow actually. After work I was going to meet up with my pastor, but hat ended up not working out with him. So I was going to meet up with somone else and that ended up no working out either. So I was left by myself at home. I instead started doing a website for a ministry that asked if I could do it for them. Its starting to come along. We'll see what happends. Anyway I ended up staying up kinda late working on that and forgot to blg. Anyway.. I made up for it now =o) TTFN!

Today was another typical day at work. Kinda slow and nothing new. I find myself counting minutes go by every once in awhile. After work today though I ended up going over to a couple from church's house for dinner. They had a beautiful home in like some farm land/forested area. It was really cool. While I was there I worked on two of thier computers and we just talked about a bunch of stuff while we waited for things to download. I had a good time with them tonight. Afterwards I just returned home and did a few things. but now I'm going to head to bed. Night!

Today church was pretty good. Allie had a chance to say a few things about her trip and she did a great job. I'm proud of her for that. This afternoon I picked up a couch for my apartment that someone was giving to me. It is a really nice couch too. It took some working to get it to fit in my living room nicely though. We finally got it though. I think the final layout was Allies idea and she did a good job with it. Later this evening I went to a leadership class at church. For some reason I was really tired though and I had a hard time staying awake in it this time. After the meeting I ended up going to meet with the people who's house I've been staying at the past week. I explained all the computer stuff I did and just caught up about the trip and how things went etc. They ended up paying me really well for it all to. I was pretty excited about that. Anyway.. I really should get to bed. It got kinda late on me. Night!

Hey, I've been slacking behind quite a bit these past few days on my blog, sorrry about that. I've been getting back pretty late and still having to take care of the dogs and everything I just haven't been able to write one. But there wasn't much missed anyway. Yesterday however was a really good day. Allie came back to lynchburg finally. I have been waiting for her to come back since about the 2nd day she was gone. I was glad it was only 11 days and not two weeks like it was going to be at first. I don't think I would have made it. I was hardly able to concentrate on work that day becuse I was so anxious for her to get back. When she finally got back in town I was so happy I dind't know what to do with myself. I think it was the first time in my life I was so happy I felt like crying. I honestly never really understood that before, but now I completley understand. I am really really glad to have her back now. I guess I never fully realized how much I needed that woman until I had no contact with her for 11 days... that will really put you in perspective. I can't wait till after work today so I can see her again...
